The relationship between poetry and politics is not imbalanced. It is not always that poems are influenced by politics, but poems, in turn, also affect politics. Poets use their writings as a vehicle to express their political lament. Politicians use the works of poets in their art of rhetoric. From Rahul Gandhi saying "Har ek baat pe kehte ho ki tu kya hai, tumhi kaho ye Andaaz-e Guftagu kya hai", in a political rally to Mamta Banerjee calling himself "Bidrohi Kobi"(revolutionary poet), a lot of politicians use poetic lines to persuade people and to take jibes at their opponents. Here, you might remember a reel in which Sushma Swaraj and the then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh take a dig at each other with Urdu couplets in the Parliament. Many lines of Ramdahri Singh Dinkar have been recited several times by BJP leaders Rajnath Singh, Amit Shah, Sushma Swaraj, and PM Modi as well. But you will be surprised to know that Dinkar was very close to Nehru and was Gandhian by heart. However, his style of writing has appeals of being chivalrous and demands strength to defend the nation, these elements perfectly coincide with the idea of BJP. During the campaign leading up to the 2014 general election, a book of poems by Narendra Modi was released in the market. No one can forget Atal Bihari Vajpayee when it comes to poetry with politics. He is a prime example of both. His poems on emergency "kaisa Chadha junoon", "Hindu tan man, Hindu Jeevan", and "Swatantra Bharat ka mastak nahi jhukega" are some of his many creations.
